UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[kro55]

Manchester United vs Galatasaray, I really doubt Manchester United in this match because they are really unreliable. In the recently completed Premier League match, they had to lose to Crytal Palace with a score of 1-0. From there I see that this club is not reliable, especially if we include it in our betting list.
I will not be surprised when they have to swallow defeat in this match. But if they can win, it's a good result that they should get. I don't believe a big club that has a history like them should experience a situation like this, especially they are very difficult to get up.

Galatasaray's squad is weaker than Manchester United's. But I have no faith in Manchester United's performance. Manchester United's performance has become very poor and erratic. In the EFL Cup they won against Crystal Palace 3–0. But Manchester United failed to win against Crystal Palace in Premier League today. United lost the match 1-0.

United's opponents Galatasaray have no chance to call the team weak. Galatasaray's performance in Super Lig matches is very good. This team is consistently playing well. And so if United's performance is so erratic, they have no chance of winning. Manchester United must play well if they want to beat Galatasaray. A draw is most likely in this match.

I think Manchester United can still be relied on in the Champions League. Even though yes, so far this season Manchester United is still unreliable in the Premier League, but it looks like Manchester United is capable of producing different results in the Champions League . Because, even though Manchester United also lost the previous match against Bayern Munich, but in reality Manchester United still had a good fight in the match against Bayern Munich. Therefore, Manchester United should still be able to play well in the next match in the Champions League against Galatasaray. Even though the winning result is still uncertain, but I quite sure that Manchester United still has a chance to win against Galatasaray later.

If we have to predict right now, I think we can actually say that Bayern Munich and Manchester City are probably the strongest to win the Champions League. But we all know that the Champions League is a very competitive competition. So almost anything can happen at any given time.

We have seen a lot of surprises happen in the Champions League. But it is also well established that if a team is performing consistently, they are definitely able to go to at least the semi-final of the competition.

So right now, I think we can expect them to reach the semifinals easily if they do not drop in terms of form. I still do not say that both of them will reach the finals because there are other teams like Real Madrid, which are really great competitive when it comes to the Champions League competition.

Nobody can ignore Real Madrid in the Champions League this season despite some changes to the squad this season. Real Madrid are the kings of the Champions League and any team has known that for a long time and I hope Real Madrid can return to the final this season.

Manchester City, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Inter and some other teams could also reach the final if they really do something great, but none of us can be sure at the moment about who will advance to the final. We still need to complete the group stages and some knockout games as well before the final.

I think now it is no longer possible to compare the strength of the two clubs with the current state of Manchester United. Indeed, Manchester United's strength is much better, but the problem is that the conditions they are facing now are very worrying.
I won't say Mnchester United will lose, but I also won't say that they will win this match. What is clear is that I just want to see how they will perform in the match later, whether it will be better or vice versa. After all, they must have more motivation to get out of this group stage.

[KTChampions]

To qualify for the group phase, I'm sure Barcelona can do it. now they have enough players to compete although Xavi's fear is injuries to some of Barcelona's pillar players.
Last season Barca was able to appear very consistent in La Liga, but currently, Xavi must have another target in the Champions League.
entering the top 16 is very possible for Barcelona. but the competition after that will only be strong European teams which will be very difficult for Xavi. I hope Xavi can rotate some of his players in matches that look easy for them and prepare the best squad performance for the Champions League match. does not lower the quality of the players in the Barcelona squad. but Xavi must be aware of his team's current shortcomings.

The fact that Barcelona qualified was decided last season when they won La Liga and got into the first pot. As a result, the draw also turned out to be successful for them and they play in a group with Porto, Shakhtar and Antwerp. Here you have to try very, very hard not to get into one of the first two places. Further fate depends on the draw - if they have a strong opponent in the 1/8 finals, I would rather bet on it than on Barcelona.

When comparing the squads of Manchester United and Galatasaray, the Manchester United squad should definitely be put ahead. United have an excellent squad. They have a lot of talented players in their squad. But still this team's performance is poor. Their performance is not stable. Especially the performance of Manchester United's forward players is very poor. This is United's biggest weakness.

It is very difficult to predict which team will win this match. So I will refrain from betting on this match. United have more experience than Galatasaray in the Champions League. Still, I can't bet on United to win. This team has disappointed me several times this season.

It is possible that Ten Hag will have a different fate in the UCL, even though he has not been consistent in the EPL and has just suffered another defeat against Crystal Palace. United must show exactly the same performance as against Bayern Munchen, if they want to overcome Galatasaray and Copenhagen in the group phase. Furthermore, Ten Hag is required to get full points against Galatasaray, acting as host will be slightly profitable.

Ten Hag still has a big chance of getting The Red Devils through the group phase, but if they fail to get points again against Galatasaray, I think that chance will be very slim. Ten Hag is faced with a difficult situation and heavy pressure, improving its performance is an obligation that must be realized immediately.

If we have to predict right now, I think we can actually say that Bayern Munich and Manchester City are probably the strongest to win the Champions League. But we all know that the Champions League is a very competitive competition. So almost anything can happen at any given time.

Bayern Munich might have add Harry Kane to their squad which should actually be ok to mount a challenge but definitely the team is struggling to win games convincingly. Their match against Manchester United was a win but to be they weren’t at their best at all, they could have easily won the match with the kind of football Manchester United are currently playing but they ended up with just a single goal margin and a against a better team they would have lost.

Manchester City would be my choice but even them aren’t the club that won it last season. They won the league last season because of the squad they have but right now the squad doesn’t have such depth again. So i wouldn’t be so confident on them too. My favorite to win will definitely be when the competition gets to knockout stages this way I can access the team and see which has settle down well

[Leviathan.007]

I quite agree with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, but for Barcelona, I don't know, I think they will have very difficult times when they reach the knockout rounds and my prediction is that the semifinals will be their best round, although of course Barcelona still has a chance of getting to the final and even becoming champions because in a few months In the future, many things could change in the strength map of each team that is the favorite to win, including Barcelona, which continues to get stronger by bringing in several new players whose prices match their finances.

Barcelona can certainly still be a strong candidate until this round, especially since they haven't reached the highest place in the UCL competition for a long time. Barcelona's squad is much better now and perhaps we will see them perform differently than before with the depth they have now. Qualifying from the group is certain but maybe they will start to face obstacles in the round of 16 and that is the first tough task they have to overcome. However, it looks like they have to try harder and not be careless like last season and I hope they can make the most of every match.

Yes, Barcelona can still be a candidate to win the Champions League and to qualify from the group, I'm sure Barca will be able to qualify, but it will be a tough job for Xavi because the competition in the Champions League is very competitive because almost all clubs compete with stronger power, which is different from matches in LaLiga so Xavi must have more appropriate strategy to divide the squad performance in LaLiga matches and Champions League matches so that Barca will not lose stability.
I can't wait to see Barcelona's match against Porto and I'm sure Barca will be able to secure victory in this match.

With the current squad and performance of Barcelona since the start of the season, it's very possible for them to finish the season as the UEFA Champions League champions.
Xavi Hernandez has been very instrumental to the team's success. He acts like he understands the body language of all his Barcelona players and knows the best way to use his players. The addition of Joao Felix and Joao Cancelo during the summer transfer window has also improved the team's performance and if they continue to be give their best as they're currently doing, Barcelona might be the champions of Europe again

Xavi got a good team and I think this can be even better when you know, they had many financial issues and unlike Real Madrid, they couldn't spend millions of dollars and hire players. also, most of the players they got in this summer like  Joao Felix and Joao Cancel are playing there on loan and Xavi obviously aimed to achieve the goal they can get in the short term. So far in the Champions League, they had a good performance and I don't think if Barcelona will have any problem with passing the stage with Proto.

This is what I would say as well about Manchester City as this loss today has shown and Leipzig will be highly motivated to beat them. If the Wolverhampton Wanderers can do it, Leipzig can definitely do it as well. Manchester City also had a few games this season that were not convincing at all. Some moments of luck and they have huge problems to use their control over the game and score goals. This is quite often the problem they are fighting against also in matches with weaker opponents. The only game with many goals was against Fulham, and if you deduct those 5 goals from the 17 they have, they are averaging 2 goals per game, which is quite low for them.

I also think they are the favorites, but not as much as last season.

Manchester city are favorite in UEFA Champions League and also the reigning champions, so they have everything within their disposal to reach crucial stages in UCL. Pep Guardiola was really dissapointed after his team recorded two concerts defeats, one in the Carabao Cup by Newcastle and the second one is against an average EPL club, Wolverhampton Wanderers. It's definitely going to be a tough run up for City because having a glance at their next game fixtures, they will play RB Leipzig in UEFA Champions League Round 2 and also meet Arsenal in EPL R8. I just they would get ready for the tough games ahead.

[Raflesia]

Although it is true that Manchester City are currently very good because of their players who are above the level of several other clubs and Pep's genius in making strategies, they are one of the strong candidates again but to do back to back champions is only a hope because in the end the proof can be difficult especially as I said earlier where we cannot be sure of a club to win especially this is just the beginning of the Champions League because sometimes the Champions League is always difficult to predict even though there is no denial that Manchester City are strong candidates again this season.

I'm sure City will be back-to-back champions this year. Madrid is indeed a strong team but this season they have performed slightly below their level. I don't know about Munich but currently City is too strong among other strong teams. They have everything. Genius coach, the best goal machine in Europe, and capable squad depth. They have many star players and I believe they will even achieve back-to-back treble winners.

As I said before, it's still too early to say with confidence that Manchester City can return back to back to win the Champions League because it all still has to be proven and we still don't know what will happen in the future, especially for the knock out phase or quarter-finals which there are always surprises there.

Indeed, anyone would agree that Manchester City are very strong candidates but defending the championship is clearly more difficult than being a challenger so for now we still cannot be completely sure especially this is just the beginning and the Champions League has only conducted 1 match in the group phase.

It cannot be denied that Manchester City's performance in the last few seasons, especially in the Champions League, has always been good and it is very natural that they are favored in every season to get the trophy.

Everything that Pep Guardiola has done in the few seasons to shape Manchester City into what it is today, it is not without reason that Pep Guardiola has succeeded in building self-confidence and implementing a new era to dominate Europe, that is what Manchester City players have, so it is not surprising that he Every match Manchester City provides a convincing game for them to achieve victory..

I think Manchester City's success under Pep Guardiola isnt only strategic. Yes, Guardiola's strategy-making skills and ability to develop a great team season after season are crucial. I fear Manchester City may become too dependent on him. His ability to reduce team pressure has helped them advance in contests. Remember, a coach change could put the club in a disorganized state. Can Manchester City retain their dominance without Guardiola's strategic thinking and strategy to preserve player quality for bigger competitions?

I think the discussion about changing coaches is still too far away because even though Pep said one day he would leave but for now he will still be at Manchester City and I think as long as he is still coaching Manchester City it is not wrong to entrust everything to Pep because we know that he is a very experienced coach in mixing the club. As for whether or not to depend on the coach in the end, it will be a problem later because now they only have to focus on the competition.

I just they would get ready for the tough games ahead.

Defeat in the last two matches will not throw Man City out of the list of favorites to win. I think in both the EPL and UCL, Pep Guardiola squad is still very promising. It is true that sometimes a surprising defeat to a club like Wolves is unacceptable at first glance, but I have no doubt that City can get full points when they meet Leipzig in the second round of the UCL group phase. On the other hand, Leipzig is more inconsistent in the Bundesliga than City in the EPL, although Pep must be careful about this.

The meeting with Arsenal will be very interesting to wait for, I want to know how tough Arteta squad will be this season when they meet Man City. After shopping for expensive players in the transfer market last summer, Arsenal now has quite good squad depth from last season, and looks very ready to challenge the EPL champions.

But they lost two games in a row now. It doesn't matter too much because it was the League Cup only, but when did Manchester City lose two games in a row the last time?

Here we go "The last back-to-back Premier League losses City suffered came in 2016, as Guardiola's side fell to Chelsea and Leicester on December 3 and 10."

2016 and no matter what competition the played, I was sure it must have been a long time ago. Alvarez is a great player, I like his versatility. But in general there is no team that is playing perfectly yet. But I believe that Real Madrid will do much better this year and would not get destroyed by Manchester City. The second game was so dominant in last CL season.

Napoli announced all the tickets for the game between Napoli and Real Madrid were sold and we saw the fans of Napoli hardly supporting this team against Real Madrid we knew this match was going to be a hard game for Rudi Garcia and his players. On October 3rd, Napoli will host this game against Real Madrid in Diego Armando Maradona Stadium I think Napoli will have a hard game there unless they use the advantage of playing at home. Otherwise, Napoli will have no chance against Real Madrid.

[nurilham]

How can we know if barcelona is a strong squad while it was still facing some weak teams in its group? Barcelona has not yet proven its strength once it was facing a strong club in the UCL. I would not trust it till barcelona will able to prove its worthiness to win UCL this season. There are still many strong clubs in the competitions and they will be also going to the play off. Barcelona needs to face and beat at least one of the strongest candidate to win UCL like munchen and madrid.
Barcelnoa was always losing against some strong clubs. I don';t wanna call this club as strong contender to win UCL this season. I think that it's too early to say that.

We can assume Barcelona is strong enough because they have many top players in the squad. However, it is true that there are many strong teams in UCL, Barcelona isn't the only candidate for the champion of UCL this season. Luckily, Barcelona is in easy group, Group H has weak teams (Porto, Shakhtar, Antwerp). well, it is still difficult to know how strong Barcelona is. We probably know how strong Barcelona is after the group stage. There will be strong teams only that can qualify for the next round.

I think Barcelona current squad is strong enough to face a strong team like Bayern Munich or Real Madrid. But I'm not sure they will win against Man City. The quality of Barcelona squad seems still lower than Man City players' quality.

Though Manchester City has lost their last two games, I think they're still one of the best clubs at the moment and one of the favourite teams to win the UEFA Champions League competition this season.
Pep Guardiola as we all know, knows how to manage his team and bring out the best from his squad. Rodri's absence in their last two matches has been a very big issue for the club but with the return of the Spanish player, the club is surely gonna bounce back to winning ways.

we cannot compare Man City performance in domestic league matches with UCL matches because Guardiola as a coach will manage his players very wisely, maintain the quality of his players performance and always perform perfectly in the UCL and even though they lose in the EPL, it does not mean that Man City will also be bad in the UCL match later but just look this season Man City is still the EPL title holder and also Man City will compete until the final round of the UCL.

I dont make any guarantees, but lets see how Guardiola as a coach can be trusted to bring Man City to another UCL title even though the competition is a little more difficult seeing as Real Madrid has started to rise again.

Otherwise, Napoli will have no chance against Real Madrid.

This is a match that has been eagerly awaited so fans are enthusiastic about coming and watching the match between the great teams from Serie A and La Liga who will meet in the group phase match of the second UCL match.
Napoli has the home advantage but Real Madrid has the advantage of great players who are in very good or conducive condition so this match will be very exciting to watch but there will be difficulties in determining which of the two will win the match later because Until now the chances of both are almost the same.
Maybe a draw would be quite good if chosen as the main option but when there is a chance of winning I sure the score will only be very close.

I will take a draw or a goal for both teams as the main option for betting because both teams are equally strong and of course this is an important match for them to be able to have full points and lead temporarily in group C and currently both points are the same namely 3 each points.

It is very true as you said that you cannot compare the performance of a team in the Domestic league and also a match in the UCL because it is clear that the tension and desire to win the match are different.
Defending the UCL title again is quite difficult, but it cannot be denied that Manchester City has this possibility because the quality of this team is still very good this season and they are still the favourites.
And as long as Pep Guardiola is still coaching Manchester City, I believe they will get stronger and continue to be favorites to become champions.
